I drove an electric vehicle, and here is my impression

If we really want to convert to electric cars, subsidies should be offered to poorer people so they can buy them. I don't see much future for gasoline-powered cars. Other kinds of renewable-energy cars may be invented or further developed, but electric cars have the momentum right now.

We still have a battery problem, and newer technology needs to solve that. Getting enough lithium to make batteries is already a challenge, and the energy density, good as it is, still inadequate to uses like aircraft and ships -- both huge users of fossil fuels.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
